A libre streaming front-end for the web

Tubo

Tubo is a streaming front-end focused on bringing the NewPipe experience to the web. It aims at providing a clean and simple user interface to consume media from your favorite streaming platforms. It currently supports the same services as NewPipe, including YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, and more.

To retrieve the data, it wraps the excellent NewPipe Extractor library and it exposes the extracted data over a REST API that is consumed by a local re-frame SPA.

If you consider self-hosting Tubo let me know about your instance via the contribution methods. See installation for ways to set up Tubo in your server.

Installation

Packaging

Uberjar

To bundle the whole project into a self-contained uber-jar you need to follow these build steps:

npm i
npm run build
clojure -T:frontend:build uberjar

After the last command is completed, you’ll get a path to the uber-jar, which you can run like this:

java -jar target/tubo-<VERSION>.jar

Docker

Alternatively, you can use Docker to set up Tubo. Simply invoke this:

docker-compose up -d

Manual

You can also set up Tubo manually via the GNU Guix package manager. First, download the necessary tooling:

cd /path/to/tubo
guix shell

Then, compile the downloader ahead-of-time:

clojure -M -e "(compile 'tubo.downloader-impl)"

Fetch the front-end dependencies and build the front-end assets.

npm i
npm run build

Finally, compile the front-end.

clojure -M:frontend release tubo

You can now start a local server that listens on port 3000 by running this:

clojure -M:run

Access the front-end in your browser at http://localhost:3000.

Reverse Proxy

If you want to self-host Tubo and make it publicly accessible you’ll need to set up a reverse proxy.

Nginx

server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name tubo.<YOUR_DOMAIN>;
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/tubo.<YOUR_DOMAIN>/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/tubo.<YOUR_DOMAIN>/privkey.pem;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
    }
}
